aadmi kaa amal se rishta hai — Athar Nadir

kis darja mire shahr ki dilkash hai fazaa bhi
maanus har ik chiiz hai miTTi bhi havaa bhi

dekho to har ik rang se miltaa hai miraa rang
socho to har ik baat hai auron se judaa bhi

raat aangan mein chaand utraa thaa
tum mile the ki khvaab dekhaa thaa

gham-gusaari ke liye ab nahin aataa hai koi
zakhm bhar jaane kaa imkaan na huaa thaa so huaa

ab aa bhi jaao ki ik dusre mein gum ho jaaein
visaal-o-hijr kaa qissa bahut puraanaa huaa

jo dekhiye to zamaana hai tez-rau kitnaa
tulu-e-subh abhi hai to vaqt-e-shaam abhi
